Durand Railroad Station


Interesting story to tell about this depot....will get around to it after the holidays. We had a great time at the shoot but it was bitter cold. Mary Jo and I went out on the tracks to get our best angle and someone called the police....as this is private RR property. By the time the cop got there we were back in the public domain and played the innocents. $250 fine if we had gotten caught. The inside was a buzz of activity as Santa is coming Friday and they were busy decorating. Got some nice inside shots. We are all hoping to go back in the summer.
Had a great meal at a local place in Durand so despite the cold it was a good time. After I get more photos edited, I will post them along with the history of the station. It is still in use. Amtrak comes in twice a day and goes to Chicago from here.
